That it can and " neutral story " at first glance , but the picture is called " Transferring urns with ashes " and nothing at Sotheby's sold for 172,750 USD.

We can not ignore , however , is the fact that the logic of Western and post-Soviet market is different. What is sold for 172,750 USD there , there can be neprodvaemo and a tenth of that amount - and vice versa. So Konstantin and John Preston, in my view , correct. Write Kotarbinsky unpretentious flowers so the edge - he would go to the local auctions for "cheers".

And you believe that Kotarbinski at Western auctions buying a Western collectors ? >

Here you are also buying Ukrainian knzhki at American auctions and , I think, for them there bursts of American buyers do not. >

Cyril, first of all, I do not buy Ukrainian books on American auctions. In the few cases where I happened to compete there for old and rare Ukrainian publications , all was still , and I, alas , turned out in its tail. Secondly, we are not saying who ever buys Kotarbinski at Western auctions , because it was not sold in quantities sufficient to make generalizations. For costly work for which you have paid attention , I would be surprised to learn that it was acquired by Russian buyers - that is my subjective impression.

Added after 5 minutes
Clarify once again that the interest of the author's name , which told a colleague Kaffsky. Question is removed , since the name of the picture , it appears, is in the file name : " the fire ."

Second, we're not saying who ever buys Kotarbinski at Western auctions, because it was not sold in quantities sufficient to make generalizations. For costly work for which you have paid attention, I would be surprised to learn that it was acquired by Russian buyers - this is my subjective feeling.

Of course, " subjective feelings " important thing, but "compilation" can do, with sales statistics Kotarbinski work.
Next:
1. of 59 works Kotarbinski (45 lots of paintings and 14 - graphics) only 10 works were exhibited at the Ukrainian and Russian auctions, of which only three of the paintings (two on one and one on Sovkome Corners), the remaining seven - graphics.
2. Kotarbinski, for example, in the 90's has not sold, and began selling it in the 2000s, when the Western auctions generally started selling Russian art - namely, in 2003, Sotheby's sold the first thing Kotarbinski based on AI.
3. about " extensive work ". Most the expensive and I did not show, and it's:
